A Story of Speculation.
C. B Wray and C. K. Hixon,
two young men, were in the em
ploy of the Union Trust Co., of
Pittsburg, Pa., on a salary of ¥6o
per month.. They stole ><200,000
or more and have been sent to the
penitentiary for tefi years. Every
dollar of the pionev was lost in
bucket shops, speculating on
stocks.
Read these extracts from the
trial:
“Their only explanation is: ‘We
were playing the same game as
the big millionaires—and we lost.’
"Wray told .ludge Voting that
they, like every one else in the fi
nancial world in Pittsburg, were
money mad; that he and Hixon
talked money all the time, and be
fore they began stealing they saw
.many opportunities in the stock
market to become millionaires,
too.
" ‘After we had seen so many
opportunities slip by ns,’ said
Wray, ‘we began taking the
money. We took ><500 the first
dav, and lost it Then it was a
regular thing everyday until the
total amounted to at least ¥250,-1
000.
"‘Instead of eating during out I
lunch time of a half hour we went 1
to the bucket shops. We got tips!
from the proprietors, hut theyj
never won. \
I “ ‘On one transaction alone,
with one broker, we lost <140,000.
There was only one time that we
ever won and that was ¥25 ’
"These bucket shop owners
should he brought into court,”
said Judge Young to District At
torney Stewart, “if it is liue that
they knew these two men were
making only ¥60 a month wages.”
"Throughout the entire proceed
ings Wray had assumed an air of
1 braggadocio. Ilixson was repent
ant, and before sentence was pass
ed he broke down completely.
His wife and infant were present
in court.
“Wray refused to ask for mercy,
I contenting himself with saying:
‘We were playing for a high game,
the same as the big millionaires—
and we lost. We were never able
to win as they do, and I suppose
we will have to suffer the conse-
cpiences.’
“When
